Who needs a fated mate? Not this phoenix girl. Rose doesn’t care about the name tattooed on her wrist since birth. She doesn’t care that there’s a man called Pierre somewhere out there, maybe—probably—looking for her. She just wants to live her life as she sees fit, without following the path ‘fate’ or whoever else designated for her. Besides, she’s too busy running Sanctuary, this safe-haven for people with paranormal powers, to worry about romantic entanglements and a fated mate. So when emissaries from France visit Sanctuary and one of them introduces himself as Pierre, there’s only one thing this phoenix shifter wants to do: fly away. The only question is, will Pierre allow her to flee? ______________ Chasing Rose, a phoenix shifter romance, is a complete stand-alone short story. It belongs to the Fiery Blooms series with Burning Violet, Sharing Hazel and Saving Marigold, all of which can be read independently and in any order.
Author

Kallysten is a writer of romance novels and short stories, most of them with paranormal elements. Her first eBooks were published by Linden Bay Romance in 2005. The defunct Venus Press subsequently published a few of her short stories. Because so many of her stories are linked as series and part of the same universe, she decided it would make sense to have them all in the same place, which is why she self-published, first with the co-op Alinar Publishing and now on her own. When she sees calls for submissions that speak to her muse, she sometimes tries for them, and was published this way by Samhain and Torquere.
